And my team sit on their hands. This is the summer "where we make even" with the rest of the top four. :melayyanandmessi:
If I here one more rumor about us trading away our best young players for the like of Stewart "I can't run" Downing or James "Overrated" Milner I'm seriously going to go crazy. If we insist on buying English, we need to get Bentley or Barry and fire Rick "The Idiot" Parry yesterday.

I still just don't understand what's going on here with Pool. They're trading away Xabi and then bringing in Barry? Are these rumors about Downing and Milner true? Those players are not going to add anything. You keep looking at those players and you're not addressing the left-back issue and perhaps just a left-winger if Benitez can get "Dick Cup" to play right wing like he did for Holland recently.
If it was me, and we were strapped for cash, I guess the only thing one could do is set a record fee for Gerrard. 35 million Pounds at least. Just like Juve did with Zidane.

Yeah but Zidane wasn't from Turin. If we sold Gerrard the fans would sack Anfield, the offices, and burn Rick Parry's house to the ground. Maybe it's not such a bad idea after all.
As for the transfers, Rafa said we weren't going to do anything major until the window actually opens. I've got no problem with using Babel and Kuyt on the wings, so long as we add some depth that isn't Jermaine Pennant. People are saying that these rumors are a smoke screen for some big signing. But who knows? This summer has been atrocious for us so far, especially with the signing the Yids have made already.

Sky Sports News understands Manchester City have agreed a £19million deal with CSKA Moscow for striker Jo.
The Brazilian has been a long-term target of City, but he looks set to become new manager Mark Hughes' first signing for a club record fee.
Jo was a member of the Brazil squad which played England in the first game at the new Wembley in June 2007.
However, Jo - who is also thought to be a target of Valencia - made his international debut against Turkey later that year.
Firepower
The 21-year-old has scored 30 goals in 53 appearances for CSKA Moscow and Hughes would welcome that firepower as City chase a place in the top six of the Premier League next season.
There have been previous fears that a possible third-party ownership of Jo, who is advised by Kia Joorabchian, would prevent the deal following new rulings by the Premier League.
But a spokesman for Joorabchian recently said that there is nothing complicated in the proposed transfer and there is no issue of third-party ownership.
Jo is expected to agree a four-year deal, but the move will be subject to a medical and personal terms.

You ingrateful fuck, you were nothing before Arsenal. i remember him with Monaco in the Ligue, i personally never rated him, imo last season was a one off, and for the service he got, scoring 24 goals doesnt mean he's world class.
I hope we get a good sum for him, we dont need ungrateful arrogant asses like him anyway...I cant wait to see how he'll choke with Milan or Barca..
